Only After I Was Reborn Did I Realize That I Had Childhood Sweethearts Chapter 4: I Have a Little Secret

According to i Fangs plan, even if his father refused to give him money, as long as he flattered this man and took advantage of his love for football, he could always deceive him into buying lottery tickets.

But now that his father has lost his usefulness and his mother, Xiang Xiaoxia, refuses to cooperate, i Fang can only find another way.

Of course, he did have a backup plan.

i Fang got the address of Xia Yuans house from his father and shouted that he was going downstairs to play with her.

Although i Fang and Xia Yuan lived in the sa neighborhood, their houses were completely different i Fangs family had a more common layout, while Xia Yuans family had a two-story small building with a single courtyard, similar to a Japanese-style house.

i Fang stood at the front door and could hear the lodious sound of a piano coming from inside.

In this era, only families who could afford a piano

A young lady?

i Fang tiptoed and pressed the doorbell of Xia Yuans house. Soon, a gentle adult female voice ca from the other side of the doorbell.

Hello, who are you looking for? Oh, why is no one here

Is it Xia Yuans mother?

i Fang quickly waved his hands frantically towards the intercom of Xia Yuans house.

Hello, Auntie! Im i Fang, Xia Yuans classmate from kindergarten, and I also live in this neighborhood.

i Fang I often hear Yuan Yuan ntion you. Are you here to play with her?

Can I?

i Fang tried to sound innocent and naive, Yuan Yuan and I agreed to go to the childrens playground in the neighborhood together today.

Yuan Yuans piano lesson is almost over. Do you want to co in and wait for a while? Ill open the door for you.

Okay!

As soon as i Fang finished speaking, the gate in the yard slowly opened. i Fang walked a few steps forward along the road, and Xia Yuans mother opened the door to greet him, gently saying hello.

Xia Yuans mother exuded an intellectual and elegant temperant. Her long hair fell softly on one side, and under her light makeup, her clear eyes were particularly refreshing, like the warm sun in spring.

A-auntie, hello!

i Fang was a little awkward to see that Xia Yuans mother was such a beautiful lady.

However, he felt like he had seen her sowhere before

What a polite child you are. Co in and have a seat!

i Fang followed Xia Yuans mother into the living room, where they could hear the sound of the piano upstairs. The lodious music flowed into their ears, with a gentle and romantic lody like flowing water, making people involuntarily imrsed in a joyful atmosphere.

Seeing i Fangs fascination, Xia Yuans mother couldnt help but be curious, Do you like this piece?

Due to his previous job, i Fang had so knowledge of music. If I rember correctly, the piece being played now should be ndelssohns Spring Song.

Youre really amazing. Its rare to find boys who like music No wonder Yuan Yuan always talks about you. You watch TV first, and Ill pour you a glass of juice.

Thank you, Auntie.

The decoration of Xia Yuans living room is quite stylish, implying the wealth of Xia Yuans family. Its fortunate that there are no prestigious schools in small counties like Baii[1], otherwise he probably wouldnt have had the opportunity to go to kindergarten with Xia Yuan.

While waiting for Xia Yuan to finish her piano lesson, i Fang chatted with Xia Yuans mother about various things. Xia Yuans mother clearly had a strong interest in him, and i Fang was also very happy.

It seems that i Fangs proper manners and mature deanor have won the favor of this aunt.

As the pianos lody gradually faded, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed from the staircase.

Yuan Yuan, your friend is waiting for you to go out and play.

Huh? i Fang, why are you here? Xia Yuan tilted her head in confusion.

I ca to play with you! i Fang reminded, Didnt I tell you after school

Oh I almost forgot, I still have a piano lesson today. Im really sorry.

Xia Yuan looked at her mother and said, Mom, can I go to the amusent park with i Fang? We wont run around.

Sure, but rember not to talk to strangers.

Yes, yes!

Xia Yuan said as she took her shoulder bag and pulled i Fang outside, Lets go play quickly!

Rember to change your shoes, you why do you get so restless when it cos to playing.

Because it was her first ti playing with a friend outside of kindergarten, Xia Yuan seed very happy and unconsciously humd a childrens song.

By the way, Xia Yuan, what did you tell your mom about ? i Fang pretended to be calm, Im a little curious.

This little girl likes so much, she must have said so embarrassing things in front of her mom, like wanting to be my bride in the future. Otherwise, her mom wouldnt be so interested in . Its obviously the tone of a mother-in-law examining her son-in-law!

I think I said about your bedwetting, about washing your butt naked in front of everyone, and

i Fangs face turned red, and he imdiately scolded Xia Yuan, Can you talk about these things everywhere? Do you have a brain?

I I just told my mom! Xia Yuan looked aggrieved, Why are you so an and youre even cursing.

Ah ah ah ah ah ah!

Now i Fang really wants to find a hole to hide in. When you talk about to your mom in the future, can you talk more about my handso side?

Well, today you did sothing really amazing, and I told my mom about it too.

You really tell your mom everything

My mom said that when you encounter happy or unhappy things, you can share them with the people around you, so you will gain more happiness.

But even so, we should have our own little secrets, right?

i Fang smiled and stared at the pink bag around Xia Yuans waist. For example, a little secret that only you and I know

Only you and I know

Xia Yuan was excited. What secret?

i Fang reached out and said, Lend 10 yuan first, and then Ill share this secret with you.

Okay, but you have to rember to pay back.

Of course. i Fang patted his chest. My dad taught since I was young to be trustworthy and never owe money without repaying it.

Xia Yuan always carried a pink bag with her when she went out. Ever since she found out that there was a lot of pocket money inside, i Fang had been eyeing it.

Xia Yuan rummaged through her small wallet and handed a 10 yuan bill to i Fang.

Here you go, can you share your secret with now?

Dont be in a hurry, co with first.

i Fang pulled Xia Yuan towards the entrance of the residential area, which made Xia Yuan a little scared.

Arent we going to the slide in the childrens park?

Whats fun there? Were about to beco elentary school students. Shouldnt we go to more exciting places for adventures?

But I promised my mom that I wouldnt wander around Xia Yuan lowered her head and twirled her fingers.

If you dont tell your mom, and I dont tell mine, then your mom wont know, right?

i Fang leaned close to Xia Yuan and continued persuading, This will beco a little secret that only we know, only the two of us, okay?

A little secret a little secret

Just like the nursery rhy sings.

I have a little secret, I wont tell you, I wont tell you

Since Xia Yuan could rember, she had always been a well-behaved and sensible child in her parents eyes. She had never thought of hiding anything from them. Therefore, when faced with i Fangs tempting offer of a new and exciting experience, Xia Yuan had almost no resistance and ultimately nodded gently.
